Design and fabrication of circular sheet metal shearing machine

The growing use of sheet metal in various industries such as automotive, packaging, medical appliances, cylinder production, Apparatus construction, Tank construction, Aircraft bodies, Missile production, Satellite dishes, road building and road signs, and household appliances, is attributed to its ease of manufacturing, handling, and use. To meet customer demands, sheet metal product manufacturing industries are working towards producing circular feature products of good quality at a large scale and low cost. To this end, this research emphasis the design, analysis, and fabrication of an electric circular sheet metal shearing machine, this would replace the punching and blanking operations and reduce scrap value from the stock material. The research includes concept design, detail design and analysis, assembly, 3D modelling, and fabrication of the Machine.
